Read the excerpt from Immigrant Kids, and then answer the question. Most immigrants passed through Ellis Island in about one day

. Carrying all their worldly possessions, they left the examination hall and waited on the dock for the ferry that would take them to Manhattan, a mile away. Some of them still faced long journeys overland before they reached their final destination. Others would head directly for the teeming immigrant neighborhoods of New York City. What best paraphrases the central idea of the excerpt? Some Ellis Island travelers took long journeys before reaching their final home. The ferry ride to Manhattan from Ellis Island was a one-mile journey. It usually took one day to get through Ellis Island if people had many possessions. After leaving Ellis Island, the newcomers went on to live in many different places.

Answer:

After leaving Ellis Island, the newcomers went on to live in many different places.

Explanation:

Russell Freedman in his book "Immigrant Kids" tells of how young newcomers to America had to undergo various trials and hardships to get to their destinations. It gives a rare insight into the lives of these immigrant kids and their ordeals during their journeys.

For these kids in search of freedom, they had come to America, the '<em>land of the free</em>'. But the freedom they encountered was of a different kind. They had to do menial and odd jobs if they are to survive in the new place.

Ellis Island is the immigration station that enables the U.S. government to check the influx of immigrants into it's soil. The passage in the question is a perfect paraphrasing of the newcomers who left Ellis Island to live in many different places.

Anne thinks peter has an inferiority complex.find examples in the diary to support that idea
frutty [35]
In Anne Frank - The Diary Of A Young Girl

Anne told Peter that he has an inferiority complex. She wrote this on her diary dated Wednesday, February 16, 1944.

Her diary entry reads: 

"After I'd explained some French to him, we began to talk. He told me that after the war he wanted to go to the Dutch East Indies and live on a rubber plantation. He talked about his life at home, the black market and how he felt like a worthless bum. I told him he had a big inferiority complex."

"Peter has a huge inferiority complex. For example, he always thinks he's so stupid and we're so smart. When I help him with French, he thanks me a thousand times. One of these days I'm going to say, "Oh, cut it out! You're much better at English and geography!" "

Answer:

Type I

Explanation:

Type I error is also known as Alpha error or false positive(finding or conclusion) that occurs when people negate the Null Hypothesis (contradictory statement to one's hypothesis) even if it has strong chances of being true. The researchers usually form a null hypothesis in order to produce a balanced hypothesis or conclusion. Therefore, <em>the given example illustrates that if the researchers' finding is not replicated well by successive studies then it is implied that they have made type I error as they have rejected the true null hypothesis.</em>
